Ok, I searched and didn't come up with much info. If I missed it, send me a link.
After towing a heavy ski boat (5k lbs) my brakes have been "pulsing". From what I've read, it's not really that the rotors are warped, rather that the pads have overheated and left deposits on the rotors.
SO...Rather than turning the rotors everytime I pull a heavy load, I'm wanting to get a good rotor/pad combination that won't leave deposits like the OEM pads I have.
I read on a recent thread that ceramic pads do well with the heat and don't leave deposits, but are not as "sticky" as other pads.
Is there a happy median somewhere? I would like my ATRAC to work well, have a sticky pad, and not risk the pad leaving deposits. Any suggestions? Is that just wishful thinking? Let me know some of your combinations of rotors/pads.
